Relegation challenge to Playoffs ????

Hi
Just posting how i nearly got promoted to the blue square premier league with Eastleigh. I stared at 19th, on goal difference and i finished the season in the playoffs. i was wondering if this is a mistake or a complete fluke. I only lost twice, drew once and won the other matches.

If you want a big challenge try that scenario with a small club in a very competitive league such as the Premiership .... even when you start only 4-5 points adrift the lack of morale and general pressure can be testing for a manager ....
